David Ortiz knew the season started — it was just the rest of his teammates who have had trouble getting their games going.

"We've got to take off at some point," the hot-hitting Ortiz said after Tuesday night's game, when most of the Red Sox seemed to have finally caught up to Ortiz's pace in the 11-2 win.

Ortiz, who was 2-for-4 with a homer, shared his thoughts about the win as well as what he thinks about teammate Mike Aviles, who has also been great at the plate.
